Dragons: Reboot the New World

Chapter 243 No.20 Four Acts Noda Group’s Kotobuki

"Oops, I'm sorry to trouble you. I'll do it." Lu Mingfei quickly took the plate with the coffee cup and looked at him gratefully.

"Arigado! Goodcoffee!" Caesar raised his coffee cup to the girl with a smile on his face. He couldn't understand his Chinese anyway, but for a young man like him, he would never be a commoner girl making cheap instant coffee. Showing contempt for common people's coffee in front of him.

Lu Mingfei smiled gently. Well, how should I put it? What he saw in front of him really made him feel like he was back in high school. Although he had very little contact with her in his previous life and had no chance to know her age, he could tell that she was A very young girl, wearing orthodontic braces and black-rimmed glasses, her long hair was combed into a neat ponytail, with a coral red hairpin, and no other decorations on her body.

Sakura does not have any decorations on her body, but Sakura is different from Zhen. Sakura deliberately does not use any decorations to avoid attracting attention, while Zhen is a girl who has not had time to decorate. In the future, she will wear sparkling necklaces, rings and watches to become blingbling. But now she smelled only of paper, coffee, cotton and woolen vests...

Lu Mingfei sighed in his heart, saying that he was old. Thinking about it, he was indeed old. Calculating his true age, he didn't know how many years he had lived.

Then he found that his eyes were really staring at Caesar's handsome face.

"Ahem... Let's get down to business, Miss Zhen." Lu Mingfei reminded.

"Ah, oh, yes, it's time to get down to business, I'm sorry..." Zhen immediately retracted his gaze from staring at Caesar and bowed ninety degrees to everyone.

This really can't be blamed on her. She has never seen such a handsome foreign man, and he is really... so handsome, just like the Prince Charming in those idol dramas on TV...

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't say it. It's nice to drink the common people's coffee here." Caesar said, waving his hand to the girl not to be too nervous. "Although it tastes thin and contains too much sugar, drinking the common people's coffee and chatting on a rainy day is quite relaxing. "

"We are here to help Miss Zhen solve her problems, not to drink coffee." Yuan Zhisheng said in Japanese.

There was coffee in front of him. He didn't mean to look down on this kind of cheap instant coffee, but he simply didn't have the habit of drinking coffee.

"I'm really embarrassed to ask everyone in my family to come here for such a trivial matter like mine... I really don't know what to do."

"Well, you tell me." Yuan Zhisheng looked at Sakura, who nodded, took out a pen and paper and started recording.

"The thing is, this store was sold by the original owner and turned into a toy store. About a few weeks ago, I came here to work, and the gangs on the street insisted that this store used to pay them protection money. , we must continue to pay now, otherwise they will destroy the store."

"Then I paid before, and I will continue to pay now." Caesar said.

"Really... why not eat minced meat?" Yuan Zhi raised his forehead, "Is it because the rates have increased?"

"Yes, they said it increased by 15.00%. The shop owner didn't care about it. I was always left to face the gangsters alone."

"As far as I know, your store is the only one on this street that has reflected the increase in protection fees." Sakura said, "If it were a large-scale increase, we would deal with it, but the current fact is that it has increased in one store. "

"Did you do something to offend them?" Sakura stared at Aso Makoto, "This street should be within the sphere of influence of the Nakanoda-gumi of the Kabukicho gang, and that gang has never done anything extraordinary. matter."

"Ah...how could it be...I've never done anything..." Aso was so frightened by these words that she trembled all over. She was just an ordinary high school dropout, and she was also criticized by teachers in school for the reason of keeping to herself. Praise, why would you do something related to gangsters?

"Really?" Sakura gave her a cold look.

Aso Zhen quickly lowered his head, this woman was too fierce.

"Miss Sakura, there is no need to embarrass a girl." Caesar spoke up for her, "You will know what the situation is when the little gangster comes and asks him. This girl doesn't look like a random person. people."

"Then do as Mr. Caesar said." Sakura regained her momentum, took a step back and stood beside Yuan Zhisheng, just like she had always done.

When she is not showing herself, she is like a transparent person, always standing next to Yuan Zhisheng with her head lowered.

So a lot of people in the toy store started doing their own thing.

At [-]:[-], Hisashi Noda came over on time carrying a baseball bat.

He first looked to the right. At the counter, Aso was doing the accounting.

In fact, she was pretending to do the accounting because she really didn't know what to do and couldn't get along with the big shots in the family.

"You're still on duty tonight." He greeted me like an acquaintance.

"Huan... welcome."

Noda Hisako just wanted to say "good evening" to her with a smile, or "how was your day" or something like that, but as soon as he took a step forward, an arm was wrapped around his neck.

"Is this the guy?" Caesar said, half pulling and half dragging Noda Hisashi to sit down at the coffee table.

"No... that's right."

"This...um...what's your name?" Yuan Zhisheng asked.

"Shou of the Noda group!" Noda Shou said loudly, as if to embolden himself. Looking at the dark crowd of people opposite the coffee table, he couldn't help but panic.

But when he thought that he was a member of the Noda group, his momentum became stronger again.

The Noda-gumi is not a very large gang in Kabukicho, but it is famous for its bravery. Since childhood, Noda Hisashi has watched the gang of brothers with taki snake patterns embroidered on their sleeves roaming the streets. Wherever they go, people will naturally flow into them. They gave way, their backs as hard as rocks in the river.

Hisashi Noda felt that the most heroic man in the world was a gangster, so he dropped out of school to follow Kozo, the leader of the Noda group, who was his cousin.Hao San admired his cousin's ambition very much and handed over the management of the seven stores on his territory to his cousin. The work was not complicated, just collecting protection fees.

From that day on, any shop owner who saw Noda Hisaru's long white trench coat would bow deeply and say, "Here you come, please take care of me." The business has been growing recently, and the protection money will be sent to Noda Hisashi's apartment every month without asking.

Former classmates all regarded Hisashi Noda as his backer, and often introduced the cutest girl in the class to his acquaintance with Hisashi Noda. Some people also said that Kozo intended to stop Hisashi Noda from taking over the Noda Group because he felt that his cousin was so courageous at a young age.

But as the saying goes, men are destined to walk a rough road. The store that originally sold sex toys among the seven stores suddenly withdrew. As a result, Noda Hisashi's territory was suddenly reduced to six stores, and the amount of protection fees shrank with it.

The new store was a toy store, and the owner actually refused to pay protection fees. The reason was that the toy store's profits were limited, and it was a newly opened toy store and was still operating at a loss. Moreover, I had never heard that a store dealing with children had to pay protection fees. of.

Determined to take advantage of this opportunity to establish his authority, Noda Hisashi raised the store's protection fee by 15.00% and threatened to destroy the store if the protection fee was not paid, letting the store owner know the cost of being rude to the Noda-gumi.But the person looking after the store is a girl. It is Noda Hisashi's principle to never attack girls. He likes comics. In the world of comics, a man who holds the hilt of a knife can live upright in the world.

A strong man will not attack a girl, and he, Hisashi Noda, is considered a strong man.

By revealing his identity as a gangster, this group of people shouldn't be able to do anything to him...he thought.

Then he glanced at the man who looked like the leader sitting in the middle of the sofa. On the inside of his shirt, the cyan Yaksha was tearing the evil spirit's body apart.

Caesar threw Dick Tuduo on the table, "My young master personally came forward and drove all the way here. You are honored."

A black trench coat with pictures of ghosts and gods painted on the lining. Noda Shou has heard of these people...the law enforcers of our family!
The first time he entered the Noda Group, Brother Tiantang told him that gangsters must have the ambition to be fearless. Even the police do not need to be looked down upon, but there is one type of people who must not be messed with...the law enforcement officers from the same family!
He was shocked and didn't dare to speak at all. He hadn't figured out what was going on, but he could clearly see the murder weapon in the opponent's hand. The black hunting knife was as fierce as a leopard's teeth, and there was a sharp point on the back. Sawtooth.

He didn't expect that things would get so big. He just threatened him with a few words. He didn't really want to increase the protection fee. As long as the shop owner knelt down and said a few good words, Noda Hisashi would be able to go down the steps. If he really couldn't get it, He can still make up for it after making money in the store.

I didn't expect that this kind of thing would alert the family's law enforcement officers, and five people were dispatched at once. Among the five people, there was a man with yellow hair and blue eyes!Could it be that they are foreign mercenaries hired by our family?
All kinds of panic exploded in Noda Shou's mind. He couldn't understand the foreign mercenary's words at all, and he only felt that they must be a fierce threat.

"Your name." Caesar shook his shoulders and opened the front of his suit, deliberately revealing the picture of the Yasha eater on the lining. He looked at Noda Hisaru coldly and used his condescending gaze to intimidate him.

This gorgeous and strict decoration made him get into the role. He now feels that he can be regarded as a figure in the Japanese underworld.

Sakura acted as an interpreter, and translated it to Noda Shou.

"Boss, don't fall into the middle school syndrome." Lu Mingfei reminded him in a low voice.

Yuan Zhisheng said in his heart that you were basically born at the same time as the second child, so the eldest brother should not talk about the second brother, okay?He was too lazy to care about such trivial matters, so he got up and walked along the containers, glancing at the plastic Luffy, Sasuke and Haruhi Suzumiya, as well as the Gundam model as tall as a person in the corner.

Since Sakura is acting as the translator, he has nothing to worry about. Even if Caesar and Lu Mingfei talk nonsense, Sakura will translate it into normal words. A gangster like Noda Hisashi who manages several stores and collects protection fees is completely out of place. For me, To say that there is no standard procedure for dealing with such people is to scare people away.

"The Noda-gumi in Kabukicho, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo...the future third generation Noda Hisashi is now working with the second generation Noda Kozo..." Noda Hisashi was dejected.

"You don't need to sound like a famous gangster in Shinjuku City. I remember that the Noda-gumi was originally responsible for clearing the sewer pipes in Shinjuku City. After the new drainage system was built, you had nothing to do so you collected protection fees on the street, right? "Ying said coldly, "A small gang like you is not ranked among our family, but you still dare to increase the rate of protection fees?"

"This store used to pay protection fees to the group, but now that the owner has changed, they no longer pay." Hisashi Noda felt like he was being questioned by the police. "The rate increase is just talk. Just follow the previous rules. Everyone is a man of rules."

"I've never heard of toy stores charging protection fees," Sakura said. "Besides, I'm a woman."

"There is not much difference between a toy store and a sex toy store... In short, they all sell fun things..." Noda Hisashi said in a low voice.

"Are you still talking?" Sakura slapped the table.

Then Caesar grabbed the Dictado on the table with his backhand. The dark blade flashed like lightning, and the sharp light stopped in front of Noda Shou's neck in the blink of an eye.

Although he couldn't understand what the two of them were talking about, Sakura was slamming the table, so they must be unable to reach an agreement.

For matters that cannot be reached, his method is to use Dictado to solve the problem, at least to solve the person who raised the matter.

His throat rolled involuntarily, and large beads of sweat dripped from Noda Hisashi's forehead. The law enforcer was really as ruthless as a fierce god, and the knife he used seemed to be extremely sharp. The moment the blade scratched his throat, his life was also threatened. It's time to end it, and go with your dream of becoming a heroic man...

Now he finally realizes how naive he is. No wonder the gangster men in Kabukicho are reluctant to mention their own cadres. Compared with such a ruthless god of death, he is indeed a child who has not grown up. He is so naive that he is ridiculous.

"Please don't use the knife, Mr. Caesar." Sakura said, "It's not time to use the knife yet."

"it is good."

Caesar withdrew his sword and continued to use his condescending gaze to intimidate Noda Hisashi.

"Boss, you have completely entered the role..." Lu Mingfei smiled awkwardly.

"How old are you?" Sakura asked.

"Born on May [-], [-], Gemini, dog."

"Not like a Gemini." Xia Mi suddenly interjected, "It looks like a dead Cancer."

Sakura hesitated before translating.

"The rising sign is Cancer, and Venus is also in Cancer. It is indeed a Gemini with a Cancer bias." Hisashi Noda didn't know why the cadres of the family also studied the zodiac so well.

He was a member of the zodiac club in junior high school. When asked about his age, it would make girls happy to say this, so he always reported his age like this. Just now, he was just too nervous and couldn't help but mention Gemini and Dog.

Sakura really didn't want this boring conversation to continue, so she turned to Zhen, "Just to confirm, it was you who complained to me that the Noda group not only wanted to collect protection fees from the toy store but also increased the rates without authorization?"

"Yes," Zhen said in a low voice, "the store manager said that the store has just opened and is still operating at a loss. It costs money to purchase goods and turn around, and the toy store doesn't make enough money to pay the protection fee. If the gang can't be driven away, the store will be closed. never mind."

"I just joined the job and I didn't want to lose my job. If I lost my job, I wouldn't be able to earn enough to go to college... so I took the liberty to call for help."

"Such a small matter is not negotiable..." Noda Hisashi said.

A short knife slipped out of Sakura's sleeves, and she stuck the short knife on the back of Noda Shou's neck. "You have no room for negotiation when my family members come. I think you still don't know how serious the mistake you have made. This The protection fee rates for every street, Kabukicho, and even the entire Shinjuku area are fixed.”

"No one dares to raise rates on this street, and everyone who has mentioned it is dead. We don't allow such things to affect the prosperity of this street, so we usually adopt the most stringent approach. In short, this Things can be big.”

"The treatment we usually use is to pour cement piles and bury them under Tokyo Bay."

"Hey... who said just now that we don't need to use the knife?" Lu Mingfei complained, "It's even time to pour a human stake."
